Barking Mad
"You are barking mad right?" Rebekah looked at her siblings in hope that they'd agree with her. "You honestly think Klaus won't kill you if you even attempt at harming him or his precious hybrids and doppelganger?"
"That's why I'm here." LeeAnn smiled at Rebekah ingeniously. Rebekah returned a scowl.
"And who might you be?" Rebekah had completely forgotten that she was not only surrounded by her family, Damon and Elena… but she was also surrounded by Katherine, Stefan and LeeAnn.
"LeeAnn." LeeAnn smiled and awaited a response from Rebekah who seemed to be amused by it.
"LeeAnn? LeeAnn who? And what might you have to do with the killing of Nick?"
"Well, I being his daughter might have something to do with it." LeeAnn was happy to see Rebekah let out a gasp.
"His what? How is that even possible?" Rebekah looked to Elijah for an answer.
"It's a long story."
"Well please, enlighten me." Elijah explained the story of LeeAnn with help from Elena and LeeAnn herself, once all of the originals were filled in with the story, LeeAnn soon changed the subject to Klaus, which also brought Rebekah to ask what exactly LeeAnn's plan was to kill Klaus. "So LeeAnn, how exactly to you plan on killing my brother?"
"My powers. I'll channel all my power at him, and he'll die. It's as simple as that."
"Won't you die to? I've known a lot of witches in my past, if they could kill Klaus without killing themselves, they would."
"My mother created me to kill Klaus, making me invincible. Nothing can kill me permanently."
"Permanently? What do you mean?"
"I mean that if you were to rip my heart out or tear my head off… I would seem dead, but I'd heal quickly. Like it you are staked in the heart with a wooden stake, you would die for about an hour, but then you'd heal."
"So if you've been able to kill Klaus for ages, why haven't you done it yet? Why not do it as soon as you were born?"
"I wanted to stay clear of Klaus, if he was to know of my existence, he'd hunt me and lots of other witches until they found the spell my mother used. I didn't want that."
"Well then, let's go kill him."
"Not so fast, why'd you think I needed you to be alive before I do it? I need you to distract Klaus, if he's too occupied dealing with the fact that all his siblings are out to kill him, he won't expect me to come, and you guys can prevent him from escaping."
"Okay then, sounds easy. Let's go get him."
"No. We'll kill him tomorrow. I need to prepare a few things before then."
"Like what?" LeeAnn scowled at Rebekah.
"Nothing to do with you." Rebekah looked at LeeAnn with curiosity.
"You're hiding something. What do you need to prepare?"
"Do you really want me to extract your heart from your chest?"
"I dare you too; Finn, Kol and Elijah would tear you from limb to limb in minutes."
"You mean they might attempt at it… and I'm pretty sure Elijah wouldn't risk it." LeeAnn laughed at Rebekah, who was looking at Elijah.
"What does she mean?" Elijah shook his head at Rebekah, telling her to forget about. Rebekah zoomed up to LeeAnn and attempted to extract her heart, but before she got her hands through LeeAnn's chest, Rebekah's head was across the woods. Finn and Kol gasped. Elijah on the other hand looked at the ground. Kol zoomed up to LeeAnn and tried to rip her head off, but LeeAnn snapped his neck before he even got his hands on her hair. Elijah looked at Finn to warn him not to attempt anything. Finn went up to Kol's body and lifted him over to where Elijah and Finn were once standing. He then zoomed up to where Rebekah's head lie, and brought it up to where her body was. Moments later Kol awoke and gasped for air. "Impressive." Kol got up and handed his hand out to LeeAnn, she took it as Kol attempted to crush her hand, however LeeAnn ripped his hand off before he even began to squeeze. "You're strong, but no match for both Rebekah and I when she awakes."
"Oh, we'll see about that."
"Enough." Everyone turned to look at Elijah who was disgusted by the actions of Rebekah, Kol and LeeAnn. "We're all here for the same reason, let's just get this over and done with and move on with our lives." In that moment, the spine from Rebekah's back started to stretch and formed her head once again, although Rebekah was still on conscious, she now had her head back. "When shall we meet?" Elijah pulled everyone's heads away from Rebekah.
"Tomorrow at 9pm."
"How will you be sure Klaus will be there?"
"Don't worry. He will." Rebekah awoke and rose to her feet.
"How did you do that?" She turned to Kol whose wrist was growing a hand.
"Goodnight." LeeAnn zoomed off into the woods. Elijah nodded at Damon and he grabbed Elena's arm and followed LeeAnn through the woods. Elijah turned to Katherine and Stefan. Katherine zoomed off in a blur, leaving Stefan alone with the family of originals. "Hadn't you better follow your master?" Elijah smirked at Stefan, who was ready to throw a punch at him. He looked at Rebekah who smiled at him. Had she still had feelings for him after so long? He zoomed off to avoid even getting into conversation with the girl Damon had called 'Barbie Klaus'.
Elena woke up next to Damon who was already awake and staring at her. "Sleep well?" He asked as she began to stretch.
"Nope."
"You're quite the fidget whilst you're sleeping you know." Elena scowled at Damon who laughed in return. "So Miss Gilbert, I say we finish off where we were before LeeAnn rudely interrupted us."
"Damon now's not the time, the whole Klaus thing is going down tonight and I don't want anything to begin until I know he's out of my life forever." Damon pouted but still ran his finger down Elena's cheek.
"I'll wait a life time for you Elena." Elena smiled and kissed Damon on the cheek.
"Damon. I was thinking about something."
"What?"
"I know I'm the one that was saying to take it slow and not to start anything until Klaus is dead, but I've really been thinking about what I want."
"And what's that?" Elena thought again about what she'd thought about previously. She wanted Damon. Not Stefan. Damon. And she couldn't stop thinking about her future with him. She wanted Damon to be with her forever… she hated the idea, but was willing to give up her humanity for him. Was she seriously thinking about it? What she'd promised herself she would never result to. "Damon, I love you. And I want to be with you forever."
"I love you too." Elena waited for Damon to pick up on what she meant by 'Forever'. "Is that what you'd been thinking about?"
"Please don't make me say it?"
"Say what?" Damon was confused. Say that she wanted to forget about what she'd said moments before and continue where they left off?
"I want to be with you forever Damon. Forever."
"And I feel exactly the same way Elena. I love you more than anything."
"Damon, in order for us to be together forever, I need to be able to live forever." Damon's face went pale. He was always willing to turn Elena into a vampire, but what surprised him most was her timing. It was only minutes ago when she told him she didn't want to make out with him, now suddenly she wants him to turn her into a vampire so they can live together forever? Damon grabbed Elena's hands and looked her in the eye. "Are you sure?"
"I'm positive." A tear rolled down Elena's cheek.
"What else is it Elena?" Elena looked away from Damon. "Elena?"
"If I'm a vampire, I'll be able to help tonight."
"What? There's no way I'm letting you be a part of what's going on tonight."
"Damon. At least listen to my plan."
"Fine."
"If you turn me, I'll be able to show up tonight with LeeAnn and the rest of them, when Klaus sees me, he'll question why I'm there. That's when I'll zoom past him and he'll realise I'm a vampire."
"Or he'll think you're Katherine and try to rip your heart out." Damon interrupted.
"No he won't Damon. Because now that Katherine's here, we can both be there. Anyway. He'll be furious and that's when Elijah and his family come in… he'll be too distracted by us when Bonnie comes in and starts to injure him. He'll then be ready to attack Bonnie when LeeAnn comes in and kills him. Then me and you can be together forever and leave Mystic Falls and actually live a life together." Damon thought about Elena's plan and nodded.
"Okay. But you'd better tell LeeAnn first." Elena nodded and grabbed her phone and called LeeAnn.
"Hello?"
"Hi LeeAnn, its Elena."
"What's up?"
"I need to talk to you immediately."
"Okay, but make it quick." LeeAnn cut off the phone and immediately Elena's front door slammed and LeeAnn was in her bedroom doorway. "What is it?"
"It's about tonight." Elena and Damon both explained to LeeAnn what they had spoken about moments before.
"Why do you have to turn to do that?"
"So I'll be strong and that I'll be able to fight back."
"You're not losing your life to kill a hybrid that can be killed whilst you're human."
"That's not the only reason I want to turn. I love Damon and I want to be with him forever."
"Well it's not my decision whether you turn or not, but if you do… then it's a good plan." LeeAnn zoomed out of Elena's room and the front door slammed shut.
"Okay. I'm ready." Elena said as we stared at Damon.
"Not so fast. Before we do anything… we're going to finish off where we started whilst you're still human." Elena smiled and immediately started to lock her lips around Damon's. Damon deliberately bit his lip and Elena began to suck. She pulled her lips away from Damon. "Can't you bite your wrist or something; it feels weird with the whole lip thing." Damon laughed and ripped the skin on his wrist with his teeth. He handed it out to Elena who drank willingly. "Can you make it fast? And not painful?" Damon nodded and hugged Elena, with his hands around her head he quickly turned and snapped Elena's neck. He sat beside her motionless body and began to cry as he watched her lie still. An hour later Elena awoke. Damon rushed beside her and hugged her. "You need to feed." He told her.
"I'm not killing anybody." Elena insisted.
"I know, you only need to drink their blood… you don't have to kill anybody. You don't even need to bite someone; you can just use a blood bag." Damon helped Elena up and placed her onto her bed. He grabbed Elena's phone and called Bonnie.
"Elena? What's up?"
"Bonnie, its Damon. I need you to come over here now and bring Emily's grimware."
"Where's here Damon?"
"Elena's house. Hurry."
"What's wrong Damon? Is she okay?"
"Just get over here now!" Damon hung up and waited impatiently for Bonnie to arrive. There was a knock on the door and Damon zoomed downstairs to open it. "Bonnie go upstairs now." Damon closed to the door behind Bonnie and walked up the stairs behind her.
"Elena? What's wrong? Are you okay?" Bonnie grabbed Elena's hand to comfort her. "What?" Bonnie couldn't believe it when she felt that Elena was a vampire. "You turned her?"
"It was her decision."
"What?"
"She hasn't transitioned yet. I need to get to the blood bank and get her some blood before she dies… Bonnie you need to spell one of her pieces of jewellery while I'm gone."
"You killed her Damon!"
"She wanted it. It was her decision." Elena was asleep while Damon and Bonnie were arguing about whose decision it was to turn Elena. Damon left in a blur to the blood bank and left Bonnie alone to choose an item of Elena's jewellery and spell it so that Elena could walk in the sun. Bonnie picked a necklace that she'd given Elena when they were in 7th grade. She smiled as she placed it near Elena's window. She chanted a few single words then gently placed the necklace around Elena's neck. Damon returned with a blood bag and placed it in Elena's mouth. Elena yelled in pain as fangs began to tear through her gums. She grabbed the blood bag from Damon and drank it all in a matter of seconds. Veins under her eyes began to show as she craved for more blood. "Elena breathe." Elena breathed and her teeth and eyes went back to normal. She leapt into Damon's arms.
"Bonnie." Bonnie backed away from Elena who had only just realised her presence in the room. "Bonnie please don't." Bonnie shook her head.
"You didn't have to turn Elena; you could've lived a normal, human life."
"Bonnie please don't hate me."
"Elena, you're my best friend. I could never hate you." Bonnie wrapped her arms around Elena whose head rested on Bonnie's shoulder beside her neck. Elena's fangs began to show but before she had a chance to pierce any of Bonnie's veins, Damon pushed her aside. Bonnie ran out of Elena's room and down the stairs out of the front door. Elena began to cry. "I didn't mean to hurt her."
"You didn't, you almost did. But you didn't." Elena hugged Damon and began to regret asking Damon to turn her more than ever.
